Uncovering the legend of the temple where the “Emerald Buddha” was first discovered‼️

✨🤗 If we talk about the “Emerald Buddha” enshrined at Wat Phra Sri Rattana Satsadaram or “Wat Phra Kaew”, there must be no Thai person who does not know it‼️ Because it is a sacred Buddha image that has been with Thailand for a long time... ✨🤗 Today, we will take everyone back in time to the place where the “Emerald Buddha” was first discovered‼️ Which is located in Thailand, not far from Chiang Rai province 🤗✨ . ✨🛕 “Wat Phra Kaew” is located in the heart of Chiang Rai province. It was originally called Wat Pa Ya or Wat Pa Yea. #History It is said that in 1977, lightning struck the pagoda until it collapsed. A Buddha image covered in plaster and gold lacquer was found, so it was taken to the chapel. Later, the plaster chipped off around the nose, revealing the green inside. Therefore, the plaster was chipped off the entire Buddha image. It turned out that the inside was a whole emerald-colored jade, which is the “Emerald Buddha” or “Phra Phuttha Maha Mani Ratana Patimakorn” enshrined in a golden pavilion at Wat Phra Sri Rattana Satsadaram (Wat Phra Kaew), Bangkok at present. 🛕✨ . #What's inside the temple??? ✨🛕 Chedi 🛕✨ This chedi is an ancient chedi that was struck by lightning in 1977 and the “Emerald Buddha” was discovered. Currently, the chedi has been completely restored and beautiful (the Fine Arts Department announced the registration of the chedi as an important national historical site in 1935). . ✨🛕 Jade Buddha Hall 🛕✨ The ancient Lanna-style building is where the “Chiang Rai Jade Buddha” or “Phra Phutta Rattanakorn Navutiwatsanuson Mongkhon” is enshrined, which has the same characteristics as the “Emerald Buddha” enshrined at Wat Phra Sri Rattana Satsadaram. It is considered a sacred Buddha image that Chiang Rai people believe in. ✨🏯 Ubosot 🏯✨ Built in 1890, it is a Chiang Saen-style temple with a low base and a low sloping roof.
